    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    I do not know how to do ? if you can provide the starting equation to me that will be nice ,, then I try to go further

    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    I have to find KE , it is required .. I do want to find the equation of motion in terms of x for KE and PE and the force on the brick as a function of x .. Iam sure it is moving in vertical direction ..

    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    total energi = 1/2*m*(dx/dt)^2 + mgx +1/2*k*(x/sin(a) - L)^2 + 1/2*k*(x/sin(a) - L)^2 the kinetic energy is 1/2*m*(dx/dt)^2 ... Can we rewrite the kinetic energy equation in function of x instead of dx ?

    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    the kinetic energy in function of x is : KE(x)= 1/2*m*v^2= 1/2*m*(dx/dt)^2 Is it correct now?

    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    We have two springs so the kinetic energy should be double as much ,, is not that? thanks

    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    So you mean that this F(x) = k*(x/sin(a) - L) + k*(x/sin(a) - L) is correct ! and KE(x)= 1/2*m*v^2 + 1/2*m*v^2 = KE(x)= 1/2*m*(dx/dt)^2 + 1/2*m*(dx/dt)^2 Is it like that? thank you very much

    How to calculate the potential energy of a spring?

    Is that the force of the block in function of x is : F(x) = k*(x/sin(a) - L) + k*(x/sin(a) - L) and the kinetic energy in function of x is : KE(x)= 1/2*m*v^2 + 1/2*m*v^2 (I cannot express it in x) Is that correct ? thanks
